heh, thought this post was the other recent “dog causes fire” story… namely: one out of Tulsa Oklahoma and a dog deciding a lithium battery was a chew-toy
i’m impressed how the two dogs return to observe their work for a bit. by the bye, both dogs and a cat survived by escaping via a doggy door, and the house wasn’t a total loss. (and the moral of the story? uhm… if you’re a pet (or baby) parent keep small items with notable potential energy inside out of reach…? maybe?)
